SIGN UP TO PEDESTRIAN DAILY

Former One Nation senator Brian Burston is officially out of the party, marking the end of a vivid and dramatic stoush between him and leader Pauline Hanson.

Burston confirmed that he has jumped ship and will continue to serve as an independent, after a public blow-up between him and Hanson over the Coalition government’s proposed company tax cuts.

It wasn’t that long ago that Hanson voiced her support for the plan, before executing a huge backflip. Burston said he’d continue to uphold his support, which lead to an furious Hanson complaining about his alleged backstabbery on Sky News.
